Shared Applications

Comparing License Mobility and SALs for SA

∙ Example: Customer with SA desires hosted SharePoint solution

◉ License Mobility for SA

○ Customer needs both Server license(s), as well as CAL’s with SA

○ Customer deploys to the partner cloud; licenses may no longer be used on-premises

○ Partner licenses Windows Server, but not SharePoint

○ SharePoint application is dedicated to customer

○ Multitenant infrastructure, single-tenant app (and 90-day assignment rule)

◉ SAL for SA ○ Customer needs SP CAL’s with SA ○ Partner reports SP SAL’s for SA under SPLA ○ Customer receives hosted SharePoint Service

from partner ○ Partner is the licensee of SharePoint through

SPLA at lower price (Sal for SA) ○ Customer may continue using SharePoint

licenses on-premises ○ Multitenant infrastructure, multi-tenant app
